Susan Boyle conquers Amazon with debut album

Susan Boyle surprised the crowds at Celtic park on Thursday as she arrived on the pitch at half-time waving a Celtic scarf proudly above her head.

The Britain’s Got Talent singing sensation seemed delighted to embrace the crowd at Parkhead, dressed in a red waterproof jacket and leopard-skin scarf.

She may have been dreaming dreams of victory however it was not enough for the Hoops on the night, with her team conceding a goal in the second half, ending the match 1-0 to Hamburg.

Hitting the headlines for the second time today after it was announced that her upcoming debut album had broken the record as the biggest CD to ever be pre-ordered on Amazon US, it seems there is just no stopping this Scottish superstar.

Beating established musicians such as Bruce Springsteen, U2 and Coldplay to the pre-order top slot, this zero to hero story just keeps getting better for the 48-year-old.

And as the pre-order list continue to spiral to record numbers, this album is quickly becoming one of the most hotly contested releases to come out of any reality TV show.

Audiences got a taster of her new album when performing her cover of the Rolling Stones ballad Wild Horses on the final of America’s Got Talent.


I Dreamed a Dream will be released on November 23 and it has been rumored that the album will be swiftly followed by a Christmas TV exclusive “An Audience with Susan Boyle.”


Tipped as ITV’s biggest rating winner, this could be TV gold for SuBo with suggestions that she will be performing a selection of tracks in from her new album.
